I am thrilled to share a review of my experience with Lapas Law Firm, particularly with the exceptional personal service and dedication of Adrian Lapas and his team. My journey with Lapas Law Firm has been nothing short of outstanding, and I am genuinely satisfied with the level of professionalism and expertise they have consistently demonstrated. From the very beginning of my legal matter, Adrian Lapas displayed a deep commitment to my case. His attention to detail, legal knowledge, and genuine concern for my well-being were evident from our first consultation. It was clear that he and his firm were dedicated to achieving the best possible outcome for their clients, and this dedication never wavered throughout the entire process. One aspect that truly stood out was the respect and reputation that Lapas Law Firm has within the legal community, particularly with trustees. It was clear that Adrian Lapas and his team were well-respected by their peers, which undoubtedly played a significant role in the positive outcome of my case. This level of professional respect is a testament to their unwavering commitment to excellence and their clients' best interests. Furthermore, the respect and dedication that Lapas Law Firm demonstrated towards me as a client were unparalleled. Adrian and his team were always available to answer my questions and provide guidance, ensuring that I felt well-informed and supported throughout the legal process. Their responsiveness and willingness to go the extra mile made me feel valued and reassured during what could have been a stressful time. In conclusion, I cannot express my satisfaction enough with Lapas Law Firm and the exceptional personal service and dedication of Adrian Lapas and his team. They are a shining example of what a law firm should be – knowledgeable, respected, dedicated, and genuinely caring about their clients' well-being. I highly recommend Lapas Law Firm to anyone seeking legal representation, as they have undoubtedly earned my trust and gratitude for their outstanding work.

After simultaneously experiencing a protracted period of unemployment and a difficult divorce and losing everything I found myself buried in debt that would take the rest of my life to repay. I was being sued by creditors and unable to get credit anywhere when I reached out to Adrian. He quickly assessed my situation and advised me that a Chapter 7 bankruptcy was the best option for me and immediately assisted me in responding to a lawsuit notification I had received before I had actually hired him. He walked me through the process and kept me updated and always took my calls and responded promptly to my emails throughout the whole process. With his assistance I successfully received a discharge for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy in just under 90 days. It changed my life. Since then in just under 2 years I have restored my credit, purchased and financed a brand new vehicle, and just recently moved into a brand new home I was able to finance through my credit union. Adrian has even helped me deal with a couple of creditors that popped up after the discharge and quickly resolved those situations. This was the best decision I ever made and I have my life back because of Adrian. Thank you.

When we did not understand the system, Rick Law had many ways to help us learn, not just auditory,, but with techniques to guide us, teach us. We felt empowered in a powerless situation. We learned to protect our loved ones,feel less helpless,grow instead of give up. Best of all, help others. If you need a Lawyer, you need Rick Laws guidance.

Rick provided tender care for us when we went in to meet with him. For years, my husband and I have dreaded heading into the whole estate planning maze. It just seemed so problematic and overwhelming with our kids and their particular needs. He immediately lifted the burden of fear from our hearts and enabled us to see the process in a positive, loving light.

My wife Norma and I have known Rick Law and his family, personally and professionally, for over 35 years. We know Rick is a person of great character and the highest integrity. Most importantly...he cares about his friends, family, community and his clients. This is the reason we have selected Rick and Law ElderLaw to assist us in creating our estate plan. Another wonderful benefit of working with Rick is that he has a gift for explaining very complex estate planning concepts and strategies in simple terms that are much easier for us to understand. Rick and his firm are also experts in Elder Law planning, which to us is a very critical piece to consider in any estate plan - regardless of the 'size' of the estate. We highly recommend Rick Law and Law ElderLaw for your consideration.

Bill Dobreff is genuine, kind-hearted, and simply put a great attorney. He does not base how hard he works on your case on the amount of money he will make, but puts in the same effort for a $1,000 case and a $1,000,000 case. He is the spectacular attorney that he is because he is not an attorney for the money but because he was destined to be an attorney and loves what he does. He cares more about the clients benefiting more than himself and it truly reflects in his work. You would truly be fortunate and pleased if you retained the services of Mr. Dobreff

Mr. Rezvanpour is an outstanding human being beyond just a well-versed, top-tier attorney. From the very moment we engaged, he treated me equally even in law specific matters, and came with a presumption of the best of me as a client. When felt that I found something in the statute, he nonchalant asked: "Do you have a different reading of the law?" without complacency or conceit and in equity and collegiality. Mr. Rezvanpour will listen as an equal partner which is a unique quality shining bright among the legal community, and with his experience, he will be ready to fill in gaps where one gets lost. I recommend Mr. Rezvanpour as human being of exceptional intellect, wisdom and humbleness who happens to be an outstanding lawyer. This is something you can't buy for money; it's either there or not.

If you are looking for an attorney, I HIGHLY recommend Tony Stuart. I cannot say enough good things about Tony Stuart and his work and knowledge of the law. I hired Mr. Stuart a few years ago to take on a large insurance company that I wanted to sue for fraud, misrepresention, et cetera. Tony took on my case and I was so impressed with his work, his diligence, and the way he worked with me and explained things to me. He found out amazing things in his investigations and worked hard for me. We settled out of court and Tony got me $1.7 million! If you want a good, competent, no-nonsense, no BS attorney, I suggest you call Mr Stuart, and I say this not only as his client, but as a court reporter. I have been a deposition/court reporter in this town for over 20 years and I can say without hesitation that Mr. Stuart is one of the better attorneys I have seen get the job done. If I ever need an attorney again, I would most definitely call him again.

In the six year battle with my health insurance company over unpaid claims, I had no better ally than Tony Stuart. Through hours and hours of depositions, fruitless mediations all the way through to the final settlement negotiation, Tony stayed positive and encouraging, even when I wanted to give up. Without his hard work, attention to detail, and years of experience fighting these same cases, we would not have been able to come to an agreement that worked for both parties. I can't thank him enough for being in my corner in a fight that was almost nearly as tough as beating cancer.

My concern for my grandchildren to have a secure and stable home was the reason I stepped up to become their legal guardian, since they were in the system from early on in their young lives. However, issues which placed their safety in jeopardy was the reason I decided to adopt them. I knew the adoption would be bitterly contested, nevertheless, I placed the best interest of the children ahead of any concern I had about any objections, and proceeded to look for an attorney who could help me. I do most things online, but this time I went to the yellow pages of the phone book, and as I thumbed through the pages of attorneys one firm stood out to me. I contacted their office and was met with a friendly greeting and very helpful person who relayed my concerns to the attorneys. They set up a free consultation with me that was very timely, and during that consultation the attorneys listened closely to my story. They were honest with me and explained that there was a chance that I would not win my case, and they explained clearly why this was. They also told me that with all the information we had, there was a very good chance that I would win. I was encouraged by the attention and professionalism displayed by this firm and by Attorney Chad Rayle who took my case. Chad was prompt with supplying me with information and asked questions whenever he need to via phone, email, or by face to face meetings. He gave me the impression that he cared about my case and especially about my grandchildren, and I felt comfortable that he had a good grasp on the tasks at hand. He also had the advantage of the advice and experience of two very knowledgeable senior attorneys who seemed always available, although they are also very busy. This gave me the impression that they were very good at what they do, because many people come to them for legal help. The fee was very reasonable, and I was kept affront of the financial aspect so that I had control, and they also worked with me considerably to help keep it affordable and I appreciated that. From my perspective Attorney Chad Rayle picked up my case with authority and confidence. He researched, information which helped us strengthen the case and kept me informed and included. Chad always contacted me with information so that I could make informed decisions whenever it was necessary and then allowed me to make them. I felt that he always let me have control especially when it came to decision making, by the way he gave me information, explained what it meant and whenever I was unsure of what to do he explained what choices I had in a way that made it much easier. He also made me feel welcome to contact him whenever necessary. I was struck by Attorney Rayle's positive attitude, focus, professionalism, and assertiveness. These are important qualities that I look for in a professional and because of these qualities, I felt that I could relax and allow Attorney Chad Rayle to handle my case, which was contested and a very difficult one I might add. When I needed assurance, Chad gave me that assurance and I knew that I could trust him. I felt that Chad, as well as the entire staff at the firm handled me with dignity and respect from start to finish which was very valuable to me. This case was truly "one for the books" because of it's delicate aspects, and when it was all said and done, the court ruled in my favor; Attorney Chad Rayle had won my case for me. Because of my experience I have nothing but the deepest trust, admiration, and respect for Attorney Rayle because of how he handled me and my case, and because of his intelligence, knowledge of legal matters, and professionalism. If I were ever to need an attorney again I will most certainly go to Attorney Chad Rayle, and I highly recommend him to anyone needing his services. I am exceptionally satisfied with Attorney Rayle's services, and because of him my confidence in the legal system has been strengthened.

One of the most professional, honest, direct, sincere, and skilled individuals I have ever met in life. During/following our first visit, I questioned myself, and wondered why I was there, and thought Annemarie was a bit "gruff." She was at times; however my situation was painful, & she made me a stronger individual as I opted to go forward and have her handle my case. She is extremely smart, very direct, instructs, guides, and tells you just what's going to be, how she's going to get there, and what the expected outcome might be. I could not have resolved my issue, without Annemarie's extensive background and experience. She knows her "stuff!" She will get the job, done, and she will do her very best for you. I strongly urge you to consider her for our individual needs.

She was able to explain them and helped my family and I understand it and what steps we needed to take. A year later, I hired Jen to write my own will and trusts. It is clearly written and was organized and explained very well. Jen and Brad (her law partner) made it easy to understand and presented us with an organized binder and clear directions for us to take. They were both available instantly when I had a few questions. The whole process was completed in a very timely manner. I highly recommended them to friends and coworkers.

Ms Fay was contacted to help my family update my Grandmothers Power of Attorney, Health Care Proxy and Will during unfortunate timing due to the COVID pandemic. Ms. Fay went above and beyond to get these papers completed and notarized while having to social distance due my grandmothers living situation. During a time when we needed this the most Ms. Fay was able to work out the details via zoom with my Grandmother who is 90 and make my Grandmother happy and comfortable during the full interaction. She still asks about how Jennifer is today. She made a lasting impression. We can’t thank Ms. Fay enough for being so caring and understanding during these difficult times.

Your online answer, clear and concise, gave answer to my question: Will my children have to pay any debt I incur, after my death. I have bought the $5,000 hearing aids, taking on this debt at the age of 82 You were right. It is nice to hear well again, and, I can converse more intelligently with my family, thanks to your turning my thinking in this direction, and, assuring me that my children will not bear the burden of any debt. I cannot afford an Attorney right now, but, have an appointment with the Attorney who gives time at the local Council on Aging. Like yourself and your colleagues, he is helping us old folks get over the hurdles of the present day. I thank you for being right here on Avvo. So Easy. Thank you Avvo for having Attorney Golden, and, her colleagues, who helped me out so much with their answers also. Mary

WOW! After contacting a Webster MA Attorney regarding the administration or lack thereof and final settlement of my mother's estate by the Executor (my brother), Attorney Golden was not only able to provide insightful advice, specific information and even follow-up that my hired Attorney has been unable to provide, she did it in less than 1 hour versus his 3+ weeks to date. I would highly recommend her for anyone who needs an obviously caring, compassionate and experienced lawyer.

I was hit by a car in February, 2015, and sustained debilitating injuries to my right knee. I stumbled across Tom's website online while researching personal injury attorneys, and couldn't be more satisfied with the service he provided me. From handling the complicated process of dealing with insurance companies, to offering thoughtful advice when it was needed, Tom was a total rock star. While I hope to never have the need for Tom's services again, I will be recommending him at every opportunity. I wouldn't hesitate reaching out to him for a second should the need for his quality work arise in the future. Thanks a million, Tom!

Tom represented me after a bad car accident. I had injuries that required surgery and several months of physical therapy, and was also in the process of moving and starting a new job when the accident happened. Tom served as a kind and patient adviser during a stressful time. When my medical insurance repeatedly billed me in error for treatment related to the accident, Tom's firm was able to resolve the issue and get my insurance to bill my PIP plan instead. He negotiated the best possible injury settlement in my case in spite of low policy limits. The driver who caused the accident was covered by a notoriously cheap and difficult insurance company, and I doubt I would have received a settlement without a persistent and competent lawyer. Tom was respectful of my priorities, in particular making sure that my settlement agreement was not harmful to the passengers in my car, who were close friends of mine who were pursing their own settlement from the at-fault driver's insurance. Because of the policy limits involved in my case, it was never going to make a lot of money for Tom's firm, but they still provided me with excellent and thorough representation. I highly recommend Thomas Adams.

In January 2022, I was in my car while a repossession was taking place. From inside the car, I told the driver to put my car back down and leave me alone. The tow truck driver refused and called the police who also agitated the situation. Long story short, I felt completely violated so I called Thompson Consumer Law Group the very next day. They were quick to gather my information, details about the incident, & an overview of the next steps. After months of patience & prayer, Jose Gill from TCLG, was able to reach the settlement we discussed in January. I take pride working with them over any other law agency because they truly help people in tough situations by working pro bono. I’ve already recommended friends/family to use their service when they know their consumer rights have been violated. I wish I found this agency sooner, thank you to everyone at TCLG!

Very impressed by the work of Jose Gill. Our vehicle was repossed out of our gated private property and we questioned whether or this was even a legal entry and repossession. We contacted Thompson Law and worked with Jose who diligently worked through our case. All we had to do was tell our story, answer the phone when Jose called and sign some papers and within time we got a $20,000 settlement check. Couldn't have asked for anything more rewarding that that. Highly recommend Jose! Thank you for taking care of me and my family! Matt

He is able to grasp and explain complicated documents and filings to me and takes the time to do so. He always returns my calls or contacts me in some way, when I have questions.

I needed a special attorney to handle a complex case involving probate, guardianship, sale of realestate, income tax and asset management. I literally searched google, asked family and friends for an attorney that could take care of all these matters for me and all roads led to lee. It took 2 years to resolve each and every issue but at the end of it all ... I prayed and thanked God I found him. He will always be strait with you, work hard to resolve an issue. He is very reasonably priced which surprised me because I had dealt with attorneys half his ability and paid much more. My best advice to any one reading this review to do your self a favor and give him a call. You have nothing to lose but everything to gain.

What a Consumer Protection Lawyer Can Do for You

A consumer protection lawyer specializes in safeguarding individuals from unfair, deceptive, or fraudulent business practices. These lawyers advocate for the rights of consumers in disputes with businesses, helping clients recover damages related to fraud, defective products, false advertising, or violation of consumer protection laws. They work to enforce laws that prevent businesses from taking advantage of consumers and ensure that businesses adhere to fair practices.

Whether you’ve been the victim of a scam, sold a faulty product, or misled by false advertising, a consumer protection lawyer can help you navigate legal options and pursue justice.

When Should I Hire a Consumer Protection Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a consumer protection lawyer when you’ve encountered unfair or illegal business practices and need legal assistance to resolve the situation. Common scenarios include:

  • Fraud or deceptive business practices: If a company misled you into purchasing a product or service under false pretenses, a lawyer can help you seek compensation.
  • Defective products: If you purchased a product that was unsafe or defective and caused harm, a lawyer can help you file a product liability claim.
  • False advertising or unfair pricing: A lawyer can assist if you were misled by deceptive advertising or charged for services or products in a way that violates consumer laws.
  • Debt collection harassment: If you're being harassed by debt collectors or are facing illegal debt collection practices, a consumer protection lawyer can enforce your rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA).
  • Credit report issues: If errors on your credit report are affecting your financial standing, a lawyer can help you resolve disputes with credit reporting agencies or creditors under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).
  • Predatory lending practices: If you've been subjected to unfair loan terms or practices by payday lenders or mortgage companies, a lawyer can help you challenge the loan and seek a resolution.
  • Data breaches or identity theft: If your personal information was compromised due to a company’s failure to protect your data, a lawyer can help you recover damages related to the breach.

What Does a Consumer Protection Lawyer Do?

A consumer protection lawyer provides a wide range of services to help protect consumers' rights and seek compensation for harms caused by businesses. Their role may include:

  • Filing lawsuits: Representing clients in lawsuits against businesses that have violated consumer protection laws, whether through fraud, deceptive practices, or negligence.
  • Negotiating settlements: Working with businesses or their insurers to negotiate fair compensation for damages caused by unfair practices or defective products.
  • Pursuing class action lawsuits: When a company harms multiple consumers, a lawyer can represent a group of plaintiffs in a class action lawsuit, seeking collective damages.
  • Advising on consumer rights: Helping clients understand their rights under various consumer protection laws and advising on the best course of action.
  • Handling product liability claims: Representing clients who have been injured by defective products and holding manufacturers or retailers accountable for the harm caused.
  • Defending against debt collection harassment: Enforcing the rights of consumers under the FDCPA and other laws that protect individuals from abusive or unlawful debt collection tactics.
  • Resolving credit report disputes: Helping clients correct errors on their credit reports that may be causing financial harm or affecting their creditworthiness.

How Are Consumer Protection Lawyers Paid?

Consumer protection lawyers typically use different fee structures depending on the complexity of the case and the type of legal work required. Common payment methods include:

  • Contingency fee: For many consumer protection cases, such as class actions or product liability claims, lawyers may work on a contingency fee basis. This means they only get paid if they win or settle the case, taking a percentage (typically between 25% and 40%) of the awarded amount.
  • Hourly rate: For more complex cases or ongoing legal disputes, some lawyers charge by the hour. Hourly rates can range from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
  • Flat fee: For specific services, such as reviewing a contract or filing a small claim, a lawyer may charge a flat fee that covers all the necessary legal work.
  • Retainer fee: For clients needing ongoing legal assistance, some lawyers may charge a retainer fee, which is an upfront payment that is billed against as the lawyer works on the case.

It’s important to discuss fees upfront with your lawyer to understand how you’ll be charged and to avoid unexpected costs.

How Much Does a Consumer Protection Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a consumer protection lawyer depends on the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the type of legal service required. General cost estimates include:

  • Contingency fee cases: For cases handled on a contingency basis, the lawyer typically takes between 25% and 40% of any settlement or damages awarded.
  • Hourly rates: Hourly rates for consumer protection lawyers generally range from $150 to $500, with higher rates for more experienced attorneys or cases involving complex legal issues.
  • Flat fees: For specific services like contract reviews or handling a small claims case, flat fees may range from $500 to $2,000, depending on the scope of work.
  • Class actions: In class action cases, fees are often paid out of the settlement or damages awarded, and individual plaintiffs usually do not have to pay upfront.

Make sure to ask for a clear estimate of costs during your initial consultation to avoid surprises and to understand how much you can expect to pay.

Top Questions to Ask a Consumer Protection Lawyer

Before hiring a consumer protection lawyer, it’s important to ask questions to ensure they have the experience and skills to handle your case effectively. Key questions include:

  1. What experience do you have with consumer protection law?
    Ensure the lawyer has specific experience handling cases like yours, whether it involves product liability, fraud, or debt collection issues.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or a contingency fee, and ask for an estimate of the total cost of your case.
  3. What is the likelihood of success for my case?
    Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of your case and what outcome you can reasonably expect.
  4. Have you handled cases like mine before?
    Make sure the lawyer has experience dealing with similar legal issues, whether it’s credit report disputes, data breaches, or defective products.
  5. What is the timeline for resolving my case?
    While it can be difficult to predict exact timelines, the lawyer should give you a general idea of how long your case may take to resolve.
  6. Will you handle my case personally?
    In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of your case, so it’s important to know who will be working on your claim.

How to Check the Credibility of a Consumer Protection Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable consumer protection lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:

  • Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
  • Check for experience in consumer protection: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to confirm they specialize in consumer protection law and have handled cases similar to yours.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
  • Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients who can speak to their ability to handle consumer protection cases.
  • Look for industry affiliations: Membership in organizations like the National Association of Consumer Advocates (NACA) can indicate that the lawyer is committed to protecting consumer rights.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a consumer protection lawyer, come prepared with all relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Details of the product or service in question: Bring any purchase receipts, warranties, or contracts related to the product or service involved in your claim.
  • Documentation of your complaint: Provide evidence of your complaint, such as email exchanges with the company, photos of a defective product, or a timeline of events related to the dispute.
  • Communication with the business or debt collector: If you’ve communicated with the business or debt collector, bring copies of letters, emails, or phone logs.
  • List of questions: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes for your case.
  • Information on damages: Be prepared to discuss any financial losses or harm you’ve suffered as a result of the unfair business practices, including medical bills, lost wages, or emotional distress.

By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer understand your situation more effectively and get the best possible legal advice on how to proceed with your case.
